Hi Rose,
I say it again, what a roller coaster life you and Jim lead! Your looming storm and your cancer care reminded me of this NYT opinion piece from Margaret Renkl in yesterday's paper - she reflected on the Tennessee tornado:
The day after the tornadoes, I was texting with a friend of mine who moved to Middle Tennessee from Bay St. Louis, Miss. Her family had made it through Hurricane Katrina, a calamity that happened on a far larger scale, but making comparisons wasn’t what was on her mind. “Louis and I now talk about the ‘private Katrina’ our friends might have: cancer, death of a child, you name it. One day the sun is shining and all is intact, the next day everything is broken. And the rest of the world goes on. You’re trapped in your own crazy snow globe that’s been shaken so hard all the pieces fly loose.”
xoxo Donna
